6 July 2017 - Visit of District Governor Michael Longdon
Before we started the meal a cheque presentation was made to Elizabeth Ellis, student who had applied to our Community Fund to enable her to go on a World Challenge event to provide sanitation to schools in rural Morocco. She was also hoping to do some trekking in the Atlas Mountains and be back to tell us all about her experience in the near future.
Michael suggested the possibilities of ‘satellite Clubs’. He was also focusing on Youth activities, hoping to resurrect Youth Exchange.
Another initiative related to ‘preserve Planet Earth’, with a challenge to each Club to plant at least one tree per member, with Peter Moralee as the District ‘Tree’ Officer. Naturally he was promoting The District Conference in Llandudno, late September, with our very own Steve Lawes as Director.
He also mentioned the good work our vibrant Club is performing, mentioning in particular The Memory Café and the local Defibrillator installations.
